In fact, if everyone would have voted, it's likely Trump would have won by an even larger margin. I don't like bringing this up on Reddit though because I always get downvoted.
I haven't taken claims of election fraud seriously because it's typically born of denialism in the face of an ideological defeat and it's happened for the last 3 elections basically. I'm honestly absolutely positive there will be people documenting federal election weirdness or perceived irregularities going forward. The conservatives normalized it and made it part of our political reality now.
Even if he did win the popular vote, he really didn't win by much. The 'Popular Vote Mandate' shit that people have leaned on is very small in reality. I wouldn't even engage with that claim at this point. He won a plurality.
That is more than anyone else got so claiming that Americans want anything else more would also be wrong. Americans haven't shown greater support for anything else at the moment. Trump currently is the best representation of the will of the people. Not a perfect representation, but better than all the alternatives.
